web hosting / image hosting - what do you use?

babybimbles

Ive tried the method of putting pictures into my description via preview description but found it too long winded. I prefer listing via turbo lister and now pay seller sourcebook per quarter (about £4.50) for web hosting. I find this is quicker and I get nice backgrounds and designs.

Is there anything better out there then?

Have you tried Auctiva it's all free!

I particularly like the scrolling Auctiva store window that you can add to the top or bottom of your listings to promote other items that you are selling.

I use Photobucket to host my pics, then I make my listings in Turbo Lister, then I add the Auctiva scrolling store window thingy.

I use Photobucket to host my pictures.

As a note, I find Auctiva very annoying. The scrolling is clever, but sometimes takes too long to load, especially pictures, and now I tend not to bother using them (as a buyer.) As a seller, I don't want my listings cluttered.

If I want to see the sellers other items, I will click the link in the top right hand corner

I use Imageshack.us for image hosting.

I make my own templates (which can be found here erns-eporium.co.uk/templates.htm )

These are put together with an HTML editor. I use Turbo Lister for listing, the HTML is copied into the TL HTML view.

I find that this method is quick and am able to keep the costs down.

For image hosting I actually use my online photo album site, smugmug, but I pay for their service. I have just started using Auctiva. One great feature I like it the free scheduling of auctions, so I can do the auctions over the weekend and get them posted up on ebay weekday evenings all automatically through auctiva.
